Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable detection of normal conduction transition without having effects of electromagnetic noises, by disposing an optical fiber, in which its inner optical propagation states varies dependently on temperatures, in a superconducting magnet and detecting the transition on the basis of temperature changes when the normal conduction transition occurs in a magnet. CONSTITUTION:An optical fiber 1, in which its internal optical propagation states are varied dependently on temperature, is disposed in a magnet by such a method that the fiber 1 together with superconductors 2 are wound. Variations of the optical propagation states in the optical fiber 1 are detected by making detective light incident to one end of the optical fiber 1 and taking out its light from the other end. When normal conduction transition occurs, the detection of this transition is thus possible because signal variations appear at once in the optical detector due to temperature changes in the magnet. Further, since an electrical filter for noise removal is also necessary for use, a response speed can be much enlarged. Thus, a superconducting magnet, which is operated with high reliability even under operational conditions where the detection of the normal conduction transition is hard, can be manufactured.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a method for detecting a normal conduction transition in a superconducting magnet. Specifically, the present invention optically detects the temperature change during the normal conduction transition of the superconducting magnet, and detects the transition instantaneously without being affected by electromagnetic noise.

(Prior art) The normal conduction transition of a superconducting magnet is when the electrical resistance is O at an extremely low temperature (approximately 4 K), and when the temperature of a part of the magnet rises (to 8 to 20 K) due to some reason during operation. , which means that superconductivity disappears. The electrical resistance generated in this case generates a large amount of heat within the magnet, and this heat causes the normal conduction region to continue to expand further, so if left untreated, the magnet will be damaged. Therefore, when a superconducting magnet undergoes a normal conduction transition, it is essential to detect it reliably and quickly and to lower the current value of the magnet.

As a conventional normal conduction transition detection method, electrical detection is performed by comparing the voltage of a part where normal conductivity occurs and the voltage of other parts. However, in recent years, as pulse operation of superconducting coils has become possible, the coil terminal voltage has increased from the conventional several volts to several tens of volts to hundreds of volts to several thousand volts, and the electromagnetic and dielectric noise has also increased by more than 100 times. It increased to For this reason, in conventional electrical detection methods, the signal-to-noise ratio is greatly reduced, making it difficult to detect highly reliable normal conduction transitions.

In this way, when a normal conduction transition occurs, a change in signal immediately appears on the photodetector due to a temperature change in the magnet, making it possible to detect the transition.

In this way, if a normal conduction transition occurs in a part of the magnet, the temperature rise in that part will immediately change the propagation state of the detection light beam in the optical fiber according to the length of the normal conduction region. . Therefore, by detecting the change, it is possible to detect the normal conduction transition. This change in the optical propagation state refers to a change in the interference moat of transmitted light, rotation of the plane of polarization, etc.
